I took these shots just to give you some idea of what I'm actually working with out there...disaster.

I purchased these trees early in the spring...thinking they could add a little privacy to my terrace...FAIL.

I will be returning them to HomeDepot this week...If it ever stops raining...UGH!

So, the 2x4's went up pretty easily with these brackets...

We just screwed them directly into the metal terrace railing...top and bottom railing.

Once they were up...we attached the newly stained bed slats to the 2x4's

and viola...

We thought we were done...but, the opening in the slats turned out to be too far apart...and did not provide enough privacy...

So we had to move each slat up...1.5 inches...manually...UGH!

You can see the difference in the photo below...

The one on the right has the original spacing...the slats on the left are much tighter and offer more privacy after being moved up just 1.5 inches...

Well worth the extra effort if I do say so myself...

...not sure if I should purchase another set of bed slats from Ikea and take the fence all the way to the ground...or if it will look fine after plants and furniture are loaded into the space...Hum, stay tuned.

Yo you guys are sooo crafty...stained and everything! This is awesome. I agree with Sing...Halfway down with plants would be nice, to cover the rest of the space. Once you put furniture in it'll be perfect.Sorry I missed you last week, but we will be back soon to move!

I'm passionate about designing a life that I love. My passion for interior and fashion design begin as a little girl...As a teenager I designed most of my clothes...I have a degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City...I have worked for some of the biggest fashion and architectural firms in New York City...Today you will find me designing spaces for private clients as well as being a mom to my 15 year old daughter who suffers from Sickle Cell Disease...While being a single mom to a special needs child requires most of my attention...I still make time to seek out creativity wherever I can...be it my sewing machine, at the flea market, thrifting...while traveling or just entertaining at home with my family and friends...I live in New York City...what more inspiration does a girl need...? Stop by often to see what's inspiring me on any given day.
